  • You're correct. It is played in Britain, and the other Commonwealth countries, like last post.

  • FYI, this tune "Sunset" is played in Canada (and perhaps elsewhere) in the eveneing when the flag is being lowered. At any Canadian Armed Forces base, when you are n earshot of this tune, or in eyeshot of the flag being lowered, you face the flag and salute if weaing appropriate head dress.
